Chromebook High School
The Chromebook Technology
Chromebook is the common name for a category of computer, usually notebooks, run by a system called Chrome Operative System, created by Google instead of the usual Microsoft Windows.
Chromebooks works great with Google Workspace for Education, a cloud software suite the School is already proficiently using since 2018.
Chromebooks are usually lighter, cheaper and with longer lasting battery compared to Windows’ laptops. They have some limitations, of course, but – anyway – they’re a great solution for a personal device to use in school.
